8 manufacturer-specific interpretations across 7 manufacturers in the TuningBot DTC database.
The control module detected improper operation of the Injector 7 circuit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Chevrolet.
The control module detected improper operation of the Throttle Valve Control Motor Circuit 2. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Honda.
The control module detected that the Sensor power supply signal stayed above the expected range. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Jaguar.
The control module detected that the Secondary Upstream Manifold Air Pressure value was above the expected limit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by MINI.
The control module judged the Engine RPM input behaviour implausible for the current operating conditions. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Mitsubishi.
The control module detected a fault associated with the Fuel Injector Cylinder 6 circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Porsche.
The control module detected an interruption (open circuit) in the Injector 6 circuit, so the expected electrical continuity was not present. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Audi.
The control module detected an interruption (open circuit) in the Fuel Injector for Cylinder 6 (N84) circuit, so the expected electrical continuity was not present. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Volkswagen. Volkswagen Group tools also report it as fault code 17650. Documented across Volkswagen Group applications (Audi, SEAT and Škoda included).
